Theme Wars isn’t your ordinary WP theme store – it brings together the community – both blog designers and bloggers who need a design. Here is how it works:
- Each week, any blog designer can submit an entry (his/her original design) into our “Weekly War.”
- The Weekly War will be a contest to design a particular type of theme (e.g., magazine, business, etc.) as voted on by the community (via poll) the week before.
- The top two designs which the community votes for will be sold in our Theme Store. The winning designer receives a percentage cut each time their winning theme sells in our theme store!
Winning designers are also permanently invited to produce new themes for Theme Wars and share in the profits.
What Is the Benefit to Users?
Blog Designers
The benefit for designers is an opportunity to earn money by submitting their designs in our Weekly War. Not only will the winning designers receive a percentage of each sale, they will also earn a spot on our “Featured Designers” page, thereby giving them additional marketing and exposure for their brand.
The only qualification to submitting a design is that the design must be original work of the designer. Anyone, from anywhere in the world, can compete, each week. For information on signing up as a designer, click here.
Bloggers
The benefit to the community is access to a wide range of themes from a wide range of different designers. Theme Wars will be truly listening to the feedback of the community via community polls and voting.
People get to vote for the types of designs they would like to see and also the specific designs that we will build and sell.
GPL-Compatible Themes
All themes will be licensed under the WordPress GPL, which means that even with the basic theme license, customers will be able to use the themes on as many sites as they like.
